Two Blokes One Business
Two Blokes One Business is a weekly business podcast for entrepreneurs, founders, recruiters, and aspiring business owners who want real lessons on starting, growing, and scaling a business.
Hosted by Harvey Rivers and Adam Powell, two ex-professional footballers who built HARWELL., a specialist recruitment agency that generated $1.25M in year one, $6M in year two, and ranked #5 on the Australian Financial Review's Top 100 Fast Starters.
Every episode digs into what it actually takes to build, lead, and grow a company - including the decisions that paid off, the ones that didn't, and everything in between.
In solo episodes, Harvey and Adam break down the lessons, mistakes, and strategies they wish someone had told them three years ago when they were starting out.
In guest episodes, they sit down for candid conversations with Australia's top entrepreneurs, leaders, and world-class performance experts - to unpack what actually drives success in business and life.
If you want practical insights on building a business, scaling a company, and making smarter moves as an entrepreneur, this is the podcast for you.
